Like i said. Everybody knew Andre couldn't be counted on for 16 games. Everybody knew Glenn couldn't. Everybody knew Jerry was out of the league last year.
We have a "GM" who is straight up garbage evaluating OL and is affraid to sign anyone outside of his tiny little orbit. And guess what? The lame ass familiarity argument is not going to magically make Redmond an acceptable option at LT if needed.
Plan A was a decent plan. At least it was an unknown with upside.
Plan B was dumb and we are overpaying. And have been wasting a roster spot for a guy at the twilight of his career when we could have IRed and used that spot on someone who wants to play football.
Plan C was on his couch and had minimal experience playing LT in the league. But we knew him so it was convenient.
Plan D was on his couch and had minimal experience playing T in the league. But we knew him so it was convenient.
Plan E was last seen getting put on his back by 3rd and 4th stringers while playing G in preseason games. But he was still under contract for cheap and we knew him so it was convenient. Fresh off a 1 month vacation and barely participated in the offseason program and training camp.
Gee whiz. I wonder why none of these plans are working.
So who would you have signed at LT ? There was nothing left out there when we signed Andre Smith. People act like there are just good LT walking the streets or teams are just willing to give them up. You can blame the front office for a lot they caught a bad break at LT.
